A intergalactic bounty hunter and the father of Lisa and Sean. When he is on his latest mission, his two kids tag along.


  • Big "NO!": Lets out one when he's banned from Bucky Quanto's for starting a brawl.

  • The Everyman: Used to be this before joining the intergalactic bounty hunting business.
  • Parents as People: Tries to be a good parent to his kids, but his constant absences due to work have created a rift between them.

  • Heel–Face Turn: He turns against Pam and helps Tess take down Pam.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: After winning his duel unfairly he is disqualified and stripped of his status as a Duke.
  • Virtuous Character Copy: You'd be forgiven for being reminded of Scar when you first see him. A manipulative, egotistical, cowardly schemer who seeks to claim the throne of his people and have an arranged marriage with the heroes lover. The difference is that for all his faults B'caala still has a conscience and is horrified by Pam's invasion, admitting that he never would have step low enough to allow genocide upon his homeworld.

    The Fixer 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/the_fixer_mdtbh.png
Click to see him Deformed. 
Voiced By: Jim Rash.
A operative of the EHC who gives Sabo the bounty.
  • An Arm and a Leg: Loses his arm 2 times in the season finale.
  • Asshole Victim: Ends up being killed but given that he was trying to kill Terry's entire family including 2 kids, he had it coming.
  • Bad Boss: He opens the airlock to kill Terry and the others without care for his own troops.
  • Berserk Button: Do not touch his figurines. That's the only thing that pisses him off.
  • Boom, Headshot!: Glorlox distracts him by having one of his crew mess with his figurines before plugging him in the side of his head as he reveals his double-cross, breaking the window behind him. Thanks to his Healing Factor he survives after a few minutes to revive. When he shows up at the Hendricks house to settle matters, Terry shoots him straight between the eyes, which doesn't slow him down when he's expecting it and only exposes his reptilian skin underneath his human disguise through the wound.
  • Chekhov's Gun: His abandoned spaceship becomes useful for the kids in Season 2 when Tess tries to leave them behind on Earth whilst she tries to locate the kidnapped Terry.
  • Cruel and Unusual Death: Ends up being killed by a warp pod, which either violently compresses him into a black-hole like sphere and implodes, or involves some nasty manner of Telefrag.
  • Healing Factor: His arm regenerates the first time it’s cut off, and he survives multiple blasts to the face, a shot that leaves a gaping hole in his torso, and getting hit by a burning car. It takes a warp pod in the hole in his chest to kill him.
  • Human Aliens: He looks human, until he blinks diagonally. And his wounds during his fight with the family show green scales under his “human” skin.
  • Implacable Man: His Healing Factor is powerful enough to regrow his arm in seconds after it's been severed, and he's strong and durable enough even besides that to to be difficult to harm in the first place. Getting shot in the head and caught in his exploding office when Sean turns a spaceships's cannons on it merely puts him down momentarily. In the final fight, he gets shot through the head, had his arm sliced off, repeatedly hit by Lisa's taser blade (which was powerful enough to KO the armoured guards in one hit), stabbed through the chest multiple times and crushed by Grandma's car against a telephone pole, which then explodes. The most this does is rip off parts of his human disguise, and though he admits the explosion hurt, it seems to inconvenience him at best. It takes getting caught in the energy of an exploding warp pod (which is implied to warp the laws of space-time) to stop him.
  • It's Personal: The Hendricks family humiliating him in their escape (and more specifically, breaking all but one of his very valuable collector's figures) pissed him off so much that he traveled to Earth on his own to try and personally kill them. In fairness, his Healing Factor is powerful enough that he was a borderline Implacable Man in a fight until it was discovered that the energy of a destroyed warp pod cold interfere with his regeneration, something he didn't expect.
  • Muscles Are Meaningless: Despite being much skinnier than Terry, he makes a silent threat by casually snapping a padlock with his bare hands. In the season finale fight, he throws Terry around like a rag doll, and even kicks a burning car down the street.
  • No Name Given: He is never officially named.
  • Shame If Something Happened: Implied. When first coming to Terry with his job offer, he mentions Lisa, despite Terry never telling him about her. When Terry points this out, the Fixer just gives him a knowing look.
  • Uncanny Valley: Subtle, but save when his alien eyelids blink diagonally (which he doesn't do often), he barely blinks whilst in his human disguise, giving the impression of a constant Thousand-Yard Stare and highlighting how there's something off about him.
  • Villainous Breakdown: Becomes more unhinged in the series finale.
  • The Villain Knows Where You Live: His first appearance has him show up at Terry's house, the address of which was not public information, then make an implied threat toward Terry's children.
  • We Are Everywhere: Declares this word-to-word.
  • Would Harm a Child: Is willing to kill Lisa and Sean.

    Pam 

Pam

Voiced By: Chelsea Peretti

     Conglomerate Guards 
The foot-soldiers of the EHC.
  • Color-Coded for Your Convenience: The guard commanders are distinguished by their gray colours.
  • Light Is Not Good: They have bright-coloured armour and are working for a MegaCorp that exploits the native lifeforms of the planets that it discovers.
  • The Remnant: By the time Terry crashes on Chilla, the EHC garrison has been reduced to a mere dozen or more soldiers with many of them injured.
  • What Measure Is a Mook?: Scores of them end up being killed off and no one bats an eyelid at it.
